2026 NGAA Federal Meeting
About
The NGAA Federal Meeting is a cornerstone event in the National Growth Areas Alliance advocacy calendar.Each year, an NGAA delegation of mayors, councillors and senior officers travels to Canberra to participate in a program of targeted meetings with Federal ministers, MPs and key national stakeholders. The day provides a critical opportunity to present a unified national voice for Australia’s growth areas, grounded in evidence and local experience.
